Four Suffolk County police officers rescued three children from a house fire in Wyandanch Sunday morning.

Police were called to a house fire on State Avenue at 10:43 a.m. and when they arrived, they found a 21-year-old man lying in the street with severe burns over his entire body. A female resident of the home was outside and told police her three children were still inside.

Her pleas sent the team of Suffolk County police officers bursting into the burning house on Sunday morning. They said they fought their way through thick smoke in the Wyandanch home to rescue the children, ages 7, 2 and 6 months.

"You hear that there's children inside, and I guess your instincts kick in and you run inside and do what needs to be done," said Officer Joseph Scariolo, recalling the rescue effort Sunday.
